Trial of cx-Congrcssman Moody on the trumped up charge of cm bending n letter from the tUwil rc Stilted in n triumphant vindication fbr the defendant. Mr. Moody un masked the forces behind the jxr sedition, which were shown to be personal and business and political enemies. The active movers ap peared s H. L. Wilson mid J. C. HoststIer, of French Co., The ijnllas, working through the Mnyses, Hd Mays, John Hall's as sistant, being the tool used in the district attorney's office. Mrs. Conroy, the complainant, was but nn instrument In the bauds qTUiosc j)cople. On the stHtul she testified that the prosecution was not of her instigation, that she had merely signed papers prepared by Qthers and brought to her by Hos tetler to sign. She also swore that 13d Mays liad cautioned her before joing on the stand not to use any nffrues if she could avoid it. Ilefore the prosecution bad com plctcd its evidence Judge Bellinger took occasion to say that the pro ceedings before the grand jury, by which the indictment was procured, were evidently very exceptional; that Wilson had brought in circum stances entirely independent of the case under investigation, and ad mitted to be innocent in their character, in such a way as to operate against the defendant. ,lAnd they were introduced for that p'urpose," declared the Judge. Commenting further on the testi mony, Judge Bellinger snidjv It thews that the proceeding bTar thl grand Jury was exceptional and was hostile ami with, out regard to the rights of the defendant. , At the conclusion of the case Wednesday morning, Judge Bel linger said: Adatlttht thsl what you iir m true, Mr. District Attorney, that there is ww evidence teosHng te support your contention and I do net ihsHlc thero la any such rrldcnofk la M wcaB anal loeouelitle lhat it awe not to b al tgwsjsl Ih support of a jadf taeut.

WM uma owe write out artr diet fa aqt)fcUil liumedlotetyr .The verdict was written out by Mr. Moody's counsel. Judge M, L. Pipes and signed by Juror Ion Lewis without leaving the box. This case was one of the most remarkable that ever was tried in Oregon, not only as to the fictitious and malicious basis of the indict ment but also in the cleanness and completeness of the defense. Mr. Moody's triumph is perfect. The case gave him the opportunity to expose the source and motive of a long standing hostility that ,1ms been unceasing and unscrupulous. Public opinion will do the rest. Mr. Moody lias won n most notable victory and his foes are confused and fearful. men believe in dancing, others do not; but dancing in a public school house is prohibited by law. Oct erully r disttict school house should be used only for purposes of public education. This is particularly true when, as tit llend, theic are available balls to lw had. Kadi budding townsite has a place nvuil nble for public meetings. Why not take the religious and other meetings there an.l leave the school house in peace to sent its legiti mate purpose. It is not 11 Presby terian, or r.apttst, or Catholic, or pagan school house. It is a place for instruction of the children of the community so they may become useful and patriotic citiiens.aud hie farther all partisan bickering can be kept from the school house the butter it will be for all. hooks ior rim school. It not a proper use of a public sclipol house to permit religious or miscellaneous meetings there when other places of meeting are avail able When there arc no other plflces available for the purpose and vJhen 116 objection is made it may be proper to iihc the school Jtouse for such gatherings, for it is communi ty property and those meetings fre quently serve community needs. Hut at best they litter the school bouse and disturb in a measure the regular work of the school, render ing unsafe the belongings of pupils 'and teacher and district used in the tiaily work. Some Of our church- I Bend children should be encour aged to read the books in the new school library, indeed, they will be found moit entertaining and prof itable reading for the old folks, too. Parents should see that the books are not soiled by the children, should teach the children reverence for good books, clean in couteuts and condition. Doubtless many will recall that varai from an old render "Take this book my boys, linrnestly perm it, Much of after lies In the way ye use it. Keep it uent and clean, l;or, remember, in it livery stain that's eeu Marks a thoughtless mitttiU. A most excellent start for a school library has beeu made here. The (tfoper use of thcae books will te a vast help to the children. The latest circular of inatructtoteS from the general land office at Washington, approved by the de partment, July 11, 199, contains this clear statement: Content may t lortltatad against lesatt-Wsya' tstrle for illegality or fradA ta tta liaajptlon of the entry, or frr Mtate to ewuusly with, the law a fur entry, or Ay a4yf1tgtoa4c,afflnghe legality or rsrklKy of the) etatm.

I ins is supported by n uor.en or more laud decisions. Public hinds arc disposed of under the laws of congress nnd rules of the general laud office. If you don't believe the old say ing that the galled jade winces read the Deschuturi ocho, published at Prlncvillc. Nothing but a very serious gall, or bliater, can account for the continual fretting of our un easy contemporary. But this is "nccordin1 to untiir ", which has such way of revealing truth through vain denial of sounding words. Truth is mighty and will prevail. Neither man nor paper swathes its head nnd cries so continually and smells so powerfully of sassafras and skunk's grease if it has no sore. Friends and brethren, if Jesus had been interested in a rival town site do you suppose he would have gone over and swiped the church organ from the hall in Jerusalem? Chance to Save Hxpcitsc.

The ".and Public school now has nn uNctil.uul little library of 5a standard volumes. Those books woie provided with n fund of $33.50 raised' by an entertainment hist spring under the auspices of the teacher, A. C Hampton, and a number of citiens of whom Mrs, Steitll was probably the most active. The school board turned this money over to J. M. Lawrence, with direction that he select some one to act with him as a committee ami get, the lwoks Mrs. Steitll, its one or those active iu the entertain ment tlnU provided the fund, wis first asked to serve on this com mittee, but it seemed inconvenient for her tp act and after school opened Mr. Howtui, the teacher, was consulted as to the list of looks bust to be provided.
